Let’s Talk About It.
Did you know? One in five adults and one in six youth experience mental health challenges every year? And things aren’t getting better. To make matters worse, due to stigma surrounding issues like these, many people (both inside and outside the church) suffer in silence and isolation. As followers of Jesus, how should we respond to this rising mental health crisis?
Care Day is an annual, community-wide event hosted by First Woodway designed to normalize (and therefore destigmatize) the conversation about mental health in the church. At this free event, you will find helpful, hope-filled learning opportunities that address some of the common emotional and mental health challenges you and your loved ones experience. These seminar-style sessions will be led by experts in their field and will include topics such as anxiety, depression, grief, caregiving, trauma, and more. Learn more about these sessions and their leaders below. If you find yourself or a loved one struggling, please know there is hope! Care Day might be your first step toward help and healing, so grab a friend and register today.
